Pretty much the lamest finale ever to the lamest season I’ve seen of this show. I think it was definitely hurting from Mia’s departure, SYTYCD fatigue due to back to back seasons, and a lame 6 contestant finale.

BUT the good news is, the girl who’s been my favorite from the very get-go might win. Kathryn has been consistenly great, but it was awesome to see her with Jakob. They were unbelieveable and I can’t believe the bomb Nigel dropped last night. This was by far the very best number of the night:

My Least favorite. Stop with the crying already! This routine was so easy, you know poor Travis held back so much. And if either of them win, I don’t know what I’ll do…Notice none of the judges even comment on the dancing.

And now to the prediction of the winner!

I would love to see either of these 2, because I think they are amazing:

But, of course, I’m really hoping Kathryn got the votes. And how can I forget Russell? This guy is unbelievable, it’s almost like a light shines from him when he dances. You can watch when he shows up Ashleigh, but I was glad he and Kathryn finished out the show.

OH. P.S. All this talk about Ashleigh’s injury blah blah blah. Did you know Ellenore tore her rotatar cuff last week and danced through it? It’s crap that Ashleigh/Ryan and the “show’s doctors” made such a big deal of Ashleighs and no one said word one to commend Ellenore on being brave through hers.

I’m sad I didn’t have time to post before the cuts last night. I’ll get to them in a second as well as the usual stuff, but first I have 2 complaints:

1) Ashleigh and Ryan’s guilt trips on Tuesday. She’s injured and he fake cries their way into the top 6. How could you buy into this America?! These two are the worst dancers to ever get so far through the competition. I really wish they would let us call to vote off. I would vote the entire 2 hours for these 2.

2) A finale with the top 6? Are you kidding? I can’t believe they planned it like this. Why couldn’t they have cut out one week of stupid auditions in order to fit in a real finale?

But onto better things…The Best routine:

Ellenore and Legacy really did kill it. But then….

the Worst:

On 2nd viewing, I don’t think it was as bad as I originally thought, but still the weakest on a strong night.

But we all know the outcome: Legacy and Mollee left last night. And neither should have gone.

Finale next week! I’m so glad Kathryn and Russell made it. And on a side note, I hope they never do back-to-back seasons again. Last season was way better than this one.

I completely agree with what Adam said the WOW moments have been so few and far between this season. Ellenore and Jakob showed everyone how good these minute and a half dances can be and it really made me wish they had been together all along. In my opinion, Ellenore is emerging as a dark horse. She has been in some of the most memorable routines so far this season and this routine really showed her to be a star.

And in 2nd place:

I LOVE RUSSELL. But I still can’t call a clear cut winner. Jakob is still the best, but I’m not sure if he’ll be the favorite. No surprise here: I thought Kathryn was great in both her dances, but man, was Nathan a different boy this week or what? I didn’t catch last week’s results show but they must have torn him up. I think he swung too far the opposite way in his emotions to be likable this week. He just seemed so, so sad. This girl was a surprise for me: Noelle. She had a great night esp. in the hip hop. Her partner Ryan did well too, but male ballroom dancer’s solos always seem weird.

The worst:

I knew Ashleigh would be revealed for the lame duck she is, but the bad thing is Legacy, one of my absolute favorite dancers, was partnered with her. BUT I should say, I really think these 2 looked so awful because of choreography. As Adam pointed out, we all know they can both do hip hop, so a lame routine might land them in the bottom.

In the bottom: We’re so close to the end and its getting harder and harder to predict. So I’m going to throw a hail Mary-
